Psychodramatic supervision: a critical perspective on a (psycho)therapeutic, political and (socio)educational clinical practice

Abstract

This paper presents reflections on the importance of reading emerging reality from an expanded clinical perspective, developed throughout the process of supervising final projects in psychodrama. By a qualitative narrative methodological approach, two reports of experiences of supervision are presented, conducted in virtual and in-person formats, which illustrate the relevance of contextual analysis and the flexibility of training practices for psychodramatic actions that meet social needs. It was concluded that the supervision process is configured as a journey that articulates theory, practice, and subjectivity, reaffirming the psychodramatist’s role as an ethical subject, committed to reality and to a (psycho)therapeutic, political and socio-educational clinic.
